# SportsCareers — Full Reference > The sports industry job board. Every sports job in one place. SportsCareers (sports-careers.com) is a free, daily-updated job aggregation platform built for people pursuing careers in the sports industry. It collects real-time openings from 150+ professional sports organizations and major sports betting / prediction market companies into one searchable interface, eliminating the need to monitor dozens of separate team career pages. The platform is a discovery layer: every "Apply" link redirects to the hiring organization's official application form. SportsCareers does not host applications, collect résumés, or insert itself between candidates and employers. ## Organization - Name: SportsCareers - URL: https://sports-careers.com - Founded: 2026 - Contact: info@sports-careers.com - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/sports-careers - X (Twitter): https://x.com/sportscareers0 ## Key facts - 1,800+ open jobs indexed at any time across the platform - 150+ professional sports organizations covered - 6 leagues / categories: MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS, plus sports betting & prediction markets - Job index refreshes throughout the day; new postings typically appear within minutes of being published on the hiring organization's career page - Closed and filled roles are removed automatically - Free to browse; optional free account unlocks saved jobs, application tracking, and a daily email digest - No paid tier, no résumé hosting, no employer-side fees ## League coverage **Major League Baseball (MLB)** — All 30 MLB teams plus the MLB League Office. **National Football League (NFL)** — All 32 NFL teams plus the NFL League Office. **National Basketball Association (NBA)** — All 30 NBA teams plus the NBA League Office. **National Hockey League (NHL)** — All 32 NHL teams. **Major League Soccer (MLS)** — All 30 MLS teams plus the MLS league office. **Sports Betting & Prediction Markets** — DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Fanatics, Underdog Fantasy, PrizePicks, Sleeper, Kalshi, Polymarket, Swish Analytics, and other major operators in the sports betting and prediction-market space. ## Role types indexed Every job function in the sports industry is represented, including but not limited to: - Baseball / basketball / football / hockey / soccer operations - Sports analytics and data science - Scouting and player development - Software engineering, product management, and design - Marketing, brand, and creative - Sales (ticket sales, premium sales, partnerships, account management) - Communications, media relations, and broadcasting - Community relations and partnership activation - Finance, accounting, legal, and HR - Fan engagement and CRM - Stadium and game-day operations Both full-time, part-time, internship, and fellowship roles are indexed.

The sports industry uses a fragmented mix of ATS platforms — Workday, Teamwork Online, iCIMS, Paylocity, Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Paycom, ADP, and others. Each team selects its own ATS. **Partnership Activation**: The execution arm of a sports organization's corporate sponsorships. Activation teams take signed sponsorship deals — branded signage, naming rights, jersey patches, in-arena promotions, content campaigns — and turn them into deliverable assets the sponsor receives. Distinct from partnership sales, which closes the deal. **Revenue Operations**: Cross-functional team that supports the systems, processes, and data behind a sports organization's revenue functions — ticket sales, sponsorships, premium hospitality, and merchandise. Roles typically combine Salesforce administration, data analysis, sales-process design, forecasting, and reporting. **Sports Analytics**: Application of statistical methods, data science, and machine learning to sports problems — typically on-field performance (player evaluation, in-game strategy, scouting, biomechanics) but increasingly extending to business analytics. Roles require fluency in SQL, Python or R, and increasingly machine learning. **Scouting**: Evaluation of player talent for potential acquisition or development. Amateur scouts cover draft-eligible college, high school, or international players; pro scouts cover potential trade or free-agent targets; advance scouts prepare opponent reports. **Player Development**: Structured process of improving a player's skills, conditioning, and game knowledge after they've been acquired. Includes hitting / pitching / skill coaches, performance scientists, and program coordinators across each level of an organization's minor-league system. **Cap Management / Salary Cap**: Financial and rules-compliance work of managing a team's payroll against league-imposed limits. Exists in NFL (hard cap), NBA (soft cap with luxury tax), NHL (hard cap), and MLS (complex multi-mechanism cap). MLB does not have a salary cap but has a competitive balance tax. **NIL (Name, Image, Likeness)**: Compensation paid to college athletes for the commercial use of their identity. Created a new function across college athletic departments and adjacent agency / marketplace businesses, with roles in NIL strategy, athlete marketing, collective management, and compliance. **Front Office**: The business and operations leadership of a sports team — typically the General Manager, assistant GMs, baseball/basketball/football operations staff, scouting, analytics, player development, and the senior business leadership. **Game Day Operations**: The team and processes that produce the in-venue fan experience on game days. Covers run-of-show production, fan entertainment, in-arena content, on-court / on-field promotions, premium hospitality service, mascot operations, and coordination with security, parking, food and beverage, and ticketing. **Ticket Sales / Premium Sales**: Two-tiered sales function. Ticket sales handles single-game, partial-plan, and full-season individual ticket sales to retail customers. Premium sales covers suites, club-level seating, group sales, and ticket packages to corporate clients. The most common entry-level path into pro sports. **Sports Marketing**: Marketing and brand work specific to professional sports organizations — brand strategy, content production, social media, digital advertising, fan acquisition, season-ticket-holder marketing, creative campaigns. Adds league-specific channels and a fixed annual content calendar tied to the season. **Community Relations**: A team's outreach to its local community — youth programs, charitable giving, player appearances, community events, partnerships with local nonprofits. Most pro teams operate a 501(c)(3) foundation that the community relations team supports. **Equipment Manager**: Team member responsible for the storage, maintenance, transport, and game-day setup of all player equipment. Typically a single-track career — equipment managers come up through college equipment rooms and minor leagues. **Strength and Conditioning**: Athletic performance staff responsible for in-season and off-season physical training of players. Coaches typically hold a master's degree in exercise science or kinesiology, professional certifications (CSCS via NSCA), and pro or high-level college coaching experience. **Sports Information Director**: A college-athletics role (also called athletic communications or media relations) responsible for managing media coverage of a school's athletic programs. Pro-team equivalents are typically Communications or Public Relations departments. **Broadcasting / Media Relations**: Two adjacent functions. Broadcasting covers production and on-air talent for team-controlled broadcasts and partnerships with regional sports networks. Media relations manages all team interaction with external media. ## License All job listing content remains the property of the respective hiring organizations.
